Nintendo Switch with Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy‑Con - HAC-001(-01)
Hey guys,
Check it out!
I've been playing with SmileBASIC 4 (website), a coding program for a while now on my Nintendo Switch lite. I decided to mod the tutorial code for a shooter game and change the sprites, music, screen background color, and even the text.
Modding a game will also help you in learning how to code your own game. You learn which code controls the buttons, directional pad, and analog stick. It's really fun when you run the game and see it all works. Pretty cool!

If you didn't know @notohoho is the Twitter handle for the CEO of SmileBoom (website). He's the professor sprite I'm using in replace of the spaceship. And, the enemy is the 'punk' in the smilebasic tutorial. I thought it would be funny if I used them as the sprites in my mod shooter game.
There are a lot of different kinds of music, sound effects, sprites that are already available for use. Of course, you can also create your own. If you've been playing games (I know people that don't), you'll have many ideas that you want to try and that's where the fun is.

If you didn't know, SmileBASIC is almost similar to BASIC(Wikipedia) and Python. Hence, the name smilebasic. So, if you're a Python expert, this would be easy. If not, you can also learn Python and test it out on the Switch with Smilebasic.
The similarity is one of the reasons why I like smilebasic. When I learn some python code, I'll try it out on smilebasic and it'll work. The code is a bit different but it's not that much. You'll be able to work it out. Like the 'FOR' or 'WHILE' which you will always be using.

The best part is that the Nintendo Switch especially the switch lite is a portable gaming console. You can practice or code your own game in a jiffy. Anytime and anywhere without needing a computer or a laptop. Heck, you can code and play simple short games within half an hour.
That's how cool smilebasic and Nintendo Switch are. Although, with the switch lite, you can't dock it and link it to a monitor or a Tv. The Nintendo Switch will make it easier to use a keyboard and mouse if you're serious about creating and coding more complex games.

I didn't actually think, I would enjoy playing the games that I had mod from the tutorial as I was afraid it won't feel like a 'real' game. But, I actually was having fun. The more I play, the more ideas that came to my mind. And, I found out some new things I can do or add.
I'm trying to push the idea that the Nintendo Switch is not just a gaming console. But, it can also be an educational system. SmileBasic 4 and Fuze 4, another game programming software is a great example. This will be good especially for students.

The Nintendo Switch is already powerful enough, but I hope, Nintendo will improve more on it. Especially the storage, graphics, and battery. I'm glad they thought of the Marko Kart Live. The ability to control a smart car instead of the Labo.
Wouldn't it be cool if there's also a Mario Drone or Mario Robot that you can learn to control with coding? Just like with a Raspberry pi robot. The possibility is endless!

*UPDATE: NOTOHOHO SHOOTER SmileBASIC 4 server published KEY = 4QAS3R3X3 - I didn't know where to save it so it's just named as Workspace. I'm not sure how to rename it. But if you click on it it'll show the game title, NOTOHOHO SHOOTER. Pls, like it if you enjoyed playing. Download and enjoy!
What do you guys think?
